Todd Rundgren has started The Spirit of Harmony, a foundation to help school programs with music education.
The foundation will world to promote cultural, academic, social and personal benefits of music for young people through special events, mentoring, advocacy, social entrepreneurship and strategic partnerships.
“The purpose is to provide support and funding to school programs and other sorts of organisations who are trying to bring music to people who don’t have it, especially in terms of learning how to play instruments, learning how to understand what music is all about and having opportunity to express yourself through that medium,” Todd Rundgren said in a video announcement at his Facebook page.
The Spirit of Harmony Foundation will be based in Chicago. Rundgren will make the official announcement of the Foundation at NAMM in January, 2014.
